National Health Conclave

By EH News Bureau on February 23, 2017

The theme for this year’s event is ‘Chronic care: Innovation Opportunities and Challenges.’ The conclave endeavours to be a national level think-tank for paving a road-map to address the issues related to NCDs. It will be a platform for premier institutions and organisations to discuss and deliberate on the various issues that affect the nation’s health scenario. The conclave will be an ideal stage for health and non-health sectors to share and learn from experiences and imbibe best practices for health system strengthening.

The deliberations of the meet are expected to result in the formulation of strategies and recommendations that will help in policy development and implementation. The white paper that will be drafted from the proceedings of the conclave is expected to aide in synergising efforts of the public and private sectors in combatting the NCD epidemic.

The conclave will bring stakeholders including government, research institutions, academia, industry, community and international agencies on one platform to find a lasting solution.
